  1. I used to have this thinking that German cars, being heavier, have higher fuel consumption than Jap cars, but both BMW and Merc have higher Km/L rating than Toyota and Mazda. Toyota Prius has the best rating at 25.6km/L, follow by Merc C200 at 14.5km/L. Is this a misconception??? http://www.sgcarmart.com/new_cars/newcars_...mp;Subcode=2788 Toyota Camry 1,998 cc Fuel: 10.4 km\L Weight: 1,480 kg Mazda 6 1,999 cc Fuel: 11.4 km\L Weight: 1,407 kg Toyota Prius Hybrid 1,798 cc Fuel: 25.6 km\L Weight: 1,420 kg Lexus IS250 2,500 cc Fuel: 11.1 km\L Weight: 1,530 kg Merc C200 1,796 cc Fuel: 14.5 km\L Weight: 1,505 kg Merc E200 1,796 cc Fuel: 12.9 km\L Weight: 1,615 kg BMW 320 1,995 cc fuel: 12.6 km\L Weight: 1,465 kg

  6. There are bread & butter cars (well, slightly 'higher' than B&B up the ladder, so to speak) which come with twine exhausts.......... i mean two SEPARATE exhaust 'boxes', one on the right, the other on the left. I can understand why high performance cars may need two separate exhaust, but why do normal cars need two also?? ....... if one is good enough for most other B&B cars, why bother to add weights to the car when one will do?? I have held an exhaust in my hands, it's not very heavy, but it's also not light.... Can any bro tell me the reasons why some normal cars need two exhausts please? In fact, some high performance cars (eg STi, E9 etc) just need one single exhaust ....

  9. HOME > ST FORUM > ONLINE STORY Apr 13, 2011 Glad Singapore's frugal rather than profligate NOT only are our taxes low as Mr Byran Goh pointed out ("Forget pay size, this govt's value for money"; last Saturday) but also our Government has made very good use of our money - giving Singaporeans a standard of living that is higher than that in an average Western country. For example, the World Health Organisation ranked our health-care system the sixth best in the world. According to Newsweek, our education system is the fourth best in the world. We also enjoy low unemployment, strong economic growth and a strong dollar, earning us Newsweek's accolade as the world's most dynamic economy. Our per capita income (based on purchasing power parity), according to the International Monetary Fund, is around $57,000, making us the third richest country in the world. The majority of Western democracies tax their people more than Singapore does and spend even more money, resulting in massive borrowings. Yet, the performance of the average Western democracy is worse than ours in terms of education, health care, job creation and general prosperity. Their citizens pay more taxes than we do and get less of a return from their governments. Despite the exorbitant taxes, the governments have to borrow money. So while Singapore was accumulating budget surpluses over the past 40 years, which it invested in stocks and bonds, they accumulated a portfolio of debt. Tan Keng Soon

  11. I am wondering is E-throttle better than traditional cable throttle? Cause I realise than despite my pathetic Satria Neo having just 1.6L NA engine, it appears to have better low end torque compared to my old Celica GT4. I can change gears at 1.5K RPM and go uphill on 5th gear @ 40KM/H. Something I can't do with the Celica. Yet it still consumes less petrol. Kind of weird. Of course, top speed and acceleration wise, the Neo cannot match the Celica lar. But light city driving, acceleration no problem. Perhaps the E throttle is able to control the optimum amt of air going into the engine? This is the first time I drive an E throttle car so I don't know. All my previous cars are cable ones.

Since the implementation, the number of detected OPC offences had increased from about 1,300 a year in 2008 and 2009, to about 12,000 offences in 2010. Wow

  17. Health @ AsiaOne http://www.asiaone.com/Health/News/Story/A...113-257964.html More than half of Korean women have athlete's foot Women accuse men of having smelly feet all year long. But during the cold season, it is possible that they are the smellier ones. -The Korea Herald/ANN Thu, Jan 13, 2011 The Korea Herald/Asia News Network By Park Min-young Many women hesitate when ushered into a room with floor-seating instead of to a table when having dinner at a Korean restaurant, especially in the winter. Sure, it could be because they are wearing skirts that are too short or boots that are too much trouble to take off and put back on. But frankly speaking, those might not be the only reasons. "I never say it out loud, but I am worried that my feet might smell or my toes might have bored holes into the stockings. Especially when I have been wearing boots all day long, because I don't know what might have happened inside them," said a 25-year-old office worker who asked to remain anonymous. Women accuse men of having smelly feet all year long. But during the cold season, well, it is possible that they are the smellier ones. According to a 2009 survey by Novartis Korea of 1,000 men and women aged 18 to 54 who live in Korea's four metropolitan cities, 51.5 percent of the women said that they have experienced foot fungus in the winter. Not a surprise, knowing how they fussily pamper their precious feet in the summer but often completely forget about them as soon as they disappear from sight, tucked deep inside a pair of boots. For all who feel guilty, here are some basic steps to make your feet soft and odorless again. #1: Wash them smartly Your feet could easily get sweaty and callused in the winter because they are stuck inside extra warm shoes for most of the day. Such shoes, including boots, are most likely made of non-breathable materials that trap heat and moisture which can cause calluses that lead to dermatitis like athlete's foot and bad odor. Some recklessly try to scrape the calluses off with something sharp, like a knife or a paper cutter. This can be even more dangerous than it sounds because doing so could cut off some of the healthy skin and infect that too. The smart way to remove calluses is to soak your feet in warm water for a while, rub them with a soft towel or brush, wash them with soap and dry them completely. If water remains on the feet, it could be another cause for bad odor. "It is okay to use foot exfoliating tools or cream if the calluses are too thick, but you should avoid using too much force to scrape them off especially when your feet are wet. Not everyone needs to get rid of calluses and excessive exfoliation could irritate the skin even more," said Park Ji-young, dermatologist at ArumdaunNara Dermatology Cosmetic Surgical Center. After cleansing your feet thoroughly, slather on foot lotion or cream that contains callus softeners. Doctors say that moisturizers are always good for the feet. If your feet still feel too dry and chapped, cover them up with plastic wrap or gauze for the night and you will find them much softer in the morning. If time and money permits, visiting a nearby foot massage center or a pedicure shop would be refreshing. Your feet deserve a full-course treatment from scrubs and massages to shiny pedicures from time to time, even in the winter. If you think you have a fungal infection, make sure you see a podiatrist. Young women are often too ashamed to admit that they have foot problems and refuse to go see a doctor. But doctors warn that it may bring on secondary infections or other serious complications if not treated soon enough. "Athlete's foot sometimes gets naturally cured when the season changes, but that is only if the condition is not too bad. In worse conditions, the germs can move on to fingernails and toenails. Then the treatment gets more complicated and it can spread to other people as well," said Park. "High humidity is a major cause of athlete's foot. Winter is a better season to treat the problem than summer because it is relatively drier. But even if you get cured for now it does not mean that you are cured for good. It requires continuous care."
  18. Reckless / dangerous driving (1st offence): Fine not exceeding $3,000 or to imprisonment for a term not exceeding 12 months or to both Drunk driving: - Fine of not less than $1,000 and not more than $5,000 or to imprisonment for a term not exceeding 6 months - Disqualified from holding or obtaining a driving licence for a period of not less than 12 months Source The above offences pose a threat to public safety Messing with an OPC coupon can get up to $20k fine and jail up to 12 months or both. Tampering with fuel gages can get fines not exceeding $5,000 and/or jail term up to 12 months. These offence invloves cheating the govt's money? This is for discussion and exchange of opinions. Contrary opinions are fine, but try to be civil.
  19. Was on the road most of yesterday and couldnt help but notice a trend...gone are the dusty old looking vehicles from Malaysia, now they are replaced by MY registered Porsche Caymans, nice shiny civics, saw one black Mark X, lots of Camrys...new and expensive cars..Then I see 6-7 years old SG sunnys, altis and lots of old SG cars... A sign of the times? JB is benefitting from Singapore's growth and also their own Iskandar project? Anybody noticing this trend? If so we better buck up..or else...
  20. This is purely about the looks of cars..... Some new car models are not as pretty (or in fact even more ugly) than the older version......?? For example, some ppl feel the older WRX looks better than the newer ones. True or false??
  21. Overheard one local celebrity saying that he caught Inception twice and about how it took the second round watching to really understand it. I am amazed, amused and curious....how is Inception deep? I don't see how it takes much of a brain to understand the concept behind the movie... You want deep...think Vanilla Sky. Inception is nowhere close to Vanilla sky on cheamilogy scale. If Vanilla Sky is a 10, Inception is at most a 6.5.
